Descriptor English: Central Nervous System Venous Angioma
Descriptor Spanish: Angioma Venoso del Sistema Nervioso Central
Descriptor angioma venoso del sistema nervioso central
Entry term(s) angioma venoso cerebral
angioma venoso del SNC
Scope note: Anomalía vascular caracterizada por distribución radial o en cuña de VENAS dilatadas que drenan a una vena mayor del cerebro, médula espinal o meninges. En el angioma venoso las venas están rodeadas por tejido nervioso normal, al contrario del HEMANGIOMA CAVERNOSO DEL SISTEMA NERVIOSO CENTRAL que carece de tejido nervioso interpuesto. El drenaje del angioma venoso está totalmente integrado en el sistema venoso del organismo y, por tanto, en la mayoría de los casos no producen signos clínicos y es poco frecuente la hemorragia.

Scope note: A vascular anomaly characterized by a radial or wedge-shaped arrangement of dilated VEINS draining into a larger vein in the brain, spinal cord, or the meninges. Veins in a venous angioma are surrounded by normal nervous tissue, unlike a CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM CAVERNOUS HEMANGIOMA that lacks intervening nervous tissue. Drainage of venous angioma is fully integrated with the body's venous system, therefore, in most cases there is no clinical signs and rare bleeding.
